Yeah, cuz making you're own little mp3 compilation is the way to go, right???

The first two albums are really good, especially the first!!

if I want to listen to songs I like without them being seperated by songs Im not so keen on then yeah, it is. You might even say its a bit like a mixtape

How about you give us your opinion on Serato and ORIGINAL PRESSINGS for the 9034th time you fucking prick.

Man...does a big ass bat-signal go off in your cave anytime somebody mentions something about downloading? You talk all that shit and probably can't cut any muthafuckin' way...Serato or O.G. wax if you're wack you're wack.

Ive never heard No Pressure, (outside of Hostile) I think...but Double Or Nothing was my joint. Loved E-Dub during that period.

Good to hear other peeps were feeling DON too...thought NP was gonna run away with this for a second haha.

Double Or Nothing is my fave definitely, a very underrated album... I'd pick Insomnia second (though it's not on the list), followed by No Pressure, Music, Chilltown and React (I haven't heard Erick Onassis).

Technically Insomnia is not a solo album, I wasn't sure whether to put it on the list, but I agree Insomnia is very dope and under rated.

No Pressure > Double or Nothing >>> Music > the rest

Insomnia is tight, I listen to it just as much as No Pressure.

Double Or Nothing > Insomnia > No Pressure > Erick Onansis > the rest

"Double Or Nothing" is criminally underrated. I believe it was Erick at his finest. If you listen all the way through, there isnt one weak song on the album! And the cameo's by Def Squad just put the album over the top for me. You can't front on joints like "Freak Out", "Open Fire", "Tell'em" and "Move On". Redman was an absolute beast on this.
Prepare yourself now for the six man wedding!

I'd say you got the order right in the first post. I slept on that Erick Onasis album for a few years, and was missing out. I like the Slick Rick colabo. on that one.

I need to check for more Parish solo stuff. I have only heard The Awakening. Any recommendations what to get next?

I think Chilltown is a better album than React as far as PMD

Its been at least a year since I played either Chilltown or React, so IDK. Thanks for the PMD. I will check that tomorrow.

i noticed also around the time Double or Nothing dropped he switched up his production style a bit (for the better)....harder bass and more Rhodes keys mixed with the samples. I just wish he also would have kept Joe Sinistr around a bit longer....could you imagine what him and Redman would have done to a track around the Dare Iz A Darkside era?
